Hotel Review
LK Metropole Hotel
Pattaya · Walking Street · ฿1,000–1,600/night
★★★★ 4/5
Guest friendly — no joiner fee
Published 11 June 2026
Pros
- No joiner fee for one overnight guest (verified May 2026); additional guests ฿500 each
- Quick, standard ID registration at reception — held until your guest leaves
- Great central location near Soi Buakhao
- Large pool and decent breakfast
Cons
- Rooms dated in the older wing
- Can be noisy at weekends
LK Metropole has been a Pattaya regulars’ favourite for years and it’s easy to see why: one overnight guest joins free (each additional guest is ฿500 — policy verified May 2026), the location puts Soi Buakhao, LK Metro and Walking Street all within walking distance, and the pool is big enough to spend a hungover afternoon by.
Your guest registers a Thai ID or passport at reception, standard practice under Thai hotel law — it’s held until they leave and the process takes a minute.
Rooms
Book the newer wing if you can — the older rooms are clean but showing their age. All rooms have fridges, safes and decent aircon.
The verdict
Not a luxury hotel and not trying to be. As a comfortable, zero-hassle base for a Pattaya trip, it’s hard to beat at this price.
